In Oregon, an approved fire extinguisher will typically have a classification of either "ABC" or specific classifications for different fire types, such as "A" for ordinary combustibles, "B" for flammable liquids, and "C" for electrical fires. Fire extinguishers must meet the standards set by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and be labeled accordingly. It's essential for businesses and residences to ensure their extinguishers are up to date and compliant with local regulations.
